Six people, including Cupertino and Sunnyvale residents, were arrested in a recent Los Gatos-Monte Sereno police investigation involving multiple cases of theft in recent weeks.

According to police, Mitchell Azevedo, 18, of Sunnyvale, Nicholas Masouris, 18, of San Jose and a juvenile from Campbell were arrested March 11. The three are believed to be responsible for at least nine burglaries in Los Gatos and the surrounding area.

On March 12, police stopped two vehicles associated with an ongoing burglary and fraud investigation, according to a release.

Melanie Cheshaek, 22, of Cupertino and Kenneth Bryan, 28, of Campbell were arrested and booked into the main jail, the release said.

Cheshaek was arrested on suspicion of providing false information to police, and Bryan was arrested on suspicion of possession of burglary tools and a parole violation.

A third suspect, Thomas Bryan, 24, was subsequently arrested in Campbell after a parole search for alleged involvement in the initial burglary and fraud investigation by the sheriff’s office.

Police are continuing the investigation, as it is believed those arrested may be involved in other burglary and/or fraud cases, the release said.
